    The fact that she was speaking with a Nigerian accent is everything. This is so cool. Thumbs up to Dorcas and the team.

    Applauding the no phony accent , constant clarifying she's from Nigeria not just "Africa", the yoruba and this whole production. Take your flowers y'all ❤🎉

    A story of victory. Even though this was set in 1956 it reminded me of a few experiences I had living in China in recent years. “Greater is he that is in me than he that is in the world “

    This is a wow. Encouraging and enlightening. It gives a glimpse into what many of our parents and grand-parents who emigrated to the White man's land to pursue knowledge passed through. I no doubt believe they paved the way for the ease many in this generation are now enjoying by their brilliance and exceptional performance then.

    Thank God things have changed, I moved to England from Nigeria over a year ago and English people and other foreigners have been so kind to me, of course there's the occasional fool here and there but generally it's a very polite society. I hope to go back and build a standard hospital in my village someday though, health care is terribly inadequate there.

    This was really well written and produced. It dealt with a serious issue in a way which really pulled me in - it was dramatic and compelling in equal measure. But then the humour was really well balanced and left me with a positive lasting memory. I could really do with a full length movie of this!
